Introduction

This guide will walk you through the steps required to use the South Node Calculator. This calculator determines your South Node’s position and zodiac sign based on your birth date and time. Follow the instructions carefully to obtain accurate results.

Step 1: Entering Your Birth Information

The first step involves entering your birth date and time. This information is crucial for calculating your South Node position.

• Birth Date: Click on the date input field. Select your birth date using the calendar widget. Ensure the date falls between January 1, 1900, and December 31, 2100, as these are the valid date ranges.
• Birth Time: Click on the dropdown menu to select your birth time period. Choose the time range that corresponds to your time of birth. The options are split into two-hour intervals, starting from 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM.

Both fields are mandatory, so ensure they are filled correctly before proceeding.

Step 2: Calculation Process

Once you have entered the required information, the calculator uses the provided data to determine your South Node position and associated zodiac sign. Here’s a brief overview of what happens during the calculation:

• Your birth date and birth time are used in a calculation to determine the lunar node position. The formula used is: ((yearsBetween(‘1900-01-01’, birthDate) * 365.25 + birthTime) * 0.053) % 360.
• The result from the calculation gives the South Node Position, displayed in degrees. The value is presented up to two decimal places, followed by the degree symbol (°).

Step 3: Interpretation of Results

The results of the calculation will provide two important pieces of information: the South Node Position and the Zodiac Sign it falls under.

• South Node Position: This field indicates the exact degree of your South Node within the zodiac. This information helps in understanding your past life’s influences based on astrology.
• Zodiac Sign: The calculator determines the zodiac sign by dividing the South Node degree by 30 and taking the floor of the result. The zodiac sign indicates the broader astrological context of your South Node.
• Degrees in Sign: This detail shows how many degrees into the zodiac sign your South Node is. It’s calculated as lunarNode % 30 and provides finer granularity to your reading.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can successfully use the South Node Calculator to explore astrological insights from your birth date and time. Ensure that the provided data is accurate for the best results. If you wish to repeat the process with a different set of birth details, simply re-enter the new data and recalculate.
